Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy’s unique contribution to health care stems from its advanced understanding of how the body moves, what keeps it from moving well, and how to restore mobility. Physiotherapists assess the client’s level of mobility, strength, endurance and other physical abilities to determine the impact of their illness or injury on their physical function, whether at work, rest or play. They diagnose the condition and develop a treatment plan to restore movement and reduce pain or limitations to mobility. They also advise clients on how to manage their condition independently and help the client prevent avoidable recurrences or complications.

Physiotherapy can help clients:

• Improve and maintain physical mobility and independence
• Prevent, manage, and reduce pain, physical limitations, or disabilities that may limit an individual’s activities
• Improve overall fitness, health, and well-being
